pcm0 and nfe0 share irq23:
lizzy:~% vmstat -i
interrupt total rate
irq1: atkbd0 107296 0
irq6: fdc0 1 0
irq12: psm0 563936 1
irq22: atapci2 5293281 11
irq23: pcm0 nfe0 1225731 2
cpu0: timer 947413237 2000
Total 954603482 2015
lizzy:~%
Both pcm0 and nfe0 are mobo devices. Is there any way to change the assigned
interrupts?
